Reply to comment by Flopcandy in [Beginner] In my location, my bank (PNC) has a savings account interest rate of 0.03%. Capital One is 3.4%. American Express is 3.75%. Is there any reason not to switch to one of those? by Flopcandy

I do exactly this between PNC and Ally - it’s not a problem on the PNC side. Just be aware that a lot of online banks with high interest rates have limits on the number of transactions/month. Ally’s limit is 6. So instead of direct depositing into Ally and transferring out, I direct deposit into PNC then transfer a post-bills lump into Ally.
